Tips

Scanning. "Escanear" diapositivas y negativos con la cámara digital. Los que hemos llegado al mundo de la fotografía digital con cientos o miles de diapositivas y negativos, tarde o temprano nos vemos en la necesidad de escanearlo todo o al menos gran parte de nuestro archivo.

"Escanear" diapositivas y negativos con la cámara digital

¿Para qué? Puede haber varios motivos. En primer lugar para tener un "resguardo digital" del mismo. También podemos sentir la necesidad de pasar por el Photoshop algún trabajo antiguo, o simplemente para completar nuestra web personal. Si de lo que se trata es de confeccionar un archivo digital, lo más recomendable es comprarse un buen escáner dedicado y armarse de paciencia. Lo primero es ver qué longitud de tubo necesitamos. Como el tubo que he usado es bastante ancho, hacemos unos cortes para que encaje bien en el portafiltros: Luego marcamos la medida de 20 cm para cortar el tubo: Con un cartón rígido o un plástico que se deje cortar, hay que hacer la tapa del tubo con el orificio de la diapositiva, un agujero de unos 30 x 40 mm.

Back to Basics: Film Speed

Night shots all browny looking or washed out? Got no detail in clouds or snow or on beaches? Get the right film for the job. Although a very nice photo, this 100 speed film (even on a nicely sunny day) wasn’t fast enough to capture the action without shake and blur, a 200 or 400 would have been better. I won’t name names, and it’s not the first time I’ve seen this, but I saw a very nicely composed photo of a pet on the site today that the author had commented underneath “still getting blurry shots…”. There are many things that can cause this sort of problem, but if you focussed properly, it boils down to one thing.

Choose the right film for the job. Here a personal favourite, Lomography CN800, was used. All film is rated for something called speed. DigitaLIZA 135 Film Scanning Mask: Better Scans with the DigitaLIZA.

I was a bit skeptical about the Digitaliza since I thought I can scan sprockets on my own.

DigitaLIZA 135 Film Scanning Mask: Better Scans with the DigitaLIZA

But since getting a sprocket capable camera, I considered giving the Digitaliza a try. What a nice surprise it was! Shooting sprockets is fun but having them scanned by my local photo lab was disappointing. They seem to have trouble scanning films that have unusual sizes like Sprocket Rocket or the Horizon Perfekt. So I was convinced to get a Digitaliza and try to scan my own sprockets! Using the Digitaliza is easy especially with the instructional videos available online. Well, you can be the judge of that. Please activate JavaScript to see this gallery.
